But if you follow the money trail, what do you find?Do you find a deliberately constructed plan to tear America apart at its seams? Or do you find a chaotic random web of naive philanthropists, "professional activists", and NGOs that simply lump together seemingly unrelated progressive causes?I believe you find the latter. There is no Wizard of Oz orchestrating it all, just a "witches brew of billionaires, Islamists, and leftists" as Tablet Magazine puts it.In this episode, I explore the web of funding sources - the Who, the What, the How, and the Why.I also discuss the Resurrection of the American Frat Bro, as basic frat dudes are cheered on taking on the protestors.

"Son of Sam" Laws: Where the 1st Amendment and "True Crime" Collide (from "The Devil Within" podcast)

"The Devil Within" is one of the most popular true crime podcasts out there. Host Branden Morgan asked me to join him to provide legal analysis and explanation of the "Son of Sam" laws. These were a set of laws passed in response to the "Son of Sam" murders, ostensibly preventing criminals from making money by selling the stories of their crimes for Film, Tv, Books etc. These laws bring up a host of fascinating 1st Amendment issues - issues that have been litigated up to the Supreme Court in numerous high profile cases. Crime incidents from O.J. Simpson to the kidnapping of Frank Sinatra Jr. to the movie "Goodfellas" have been the subject of cases around this body of law that have made their ways through the courts to some controversial results. Given there popularity of the "true crime" genre, this is sure to be a hot body of law over the coming years. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
